A movie based on a Charles Dickens classic which I've read several times over, and loved.

To the few who do not know the plot of this novel, it's about a poor blacksmith boy, Pip, who manages to inherit a great fortune to become a "gentleman" In his journey he meets several different individuals including the wealthy Miss Haversham (his guardian) who holds a tragic past, her adopted daughter, the beautiful Estella who Pip falls in love with, and Magwitch an escaped convict.

A good adaptation of the book, however I wouldn't say it's the best. Apart from Miss Haversham's character I couldn't quite connect with the different individuals of the movie.
